Question Posted Wednesday November 30 2005, 8:25 pm

For high schoolers:

Were you able to keep your old friends and make brand new, more loyal ones in high school? To put it bluntly, it seems like everyone is dumb and immature in the eighth grade and I just want some sort of reason to tell myself that it'll all be okay in the end.

I give fives.

When people make new friends, old friends become jealous. Eventually, they get over it. They just learn to accept that they aren't going to be the only friends you have. You will be fine in the end.

Im a Freshman this year. Yes you do lose friends. They either go off and make friends with other people of a differnt crowd or something happens and you get in a fight, but you also will make lots of new friends to .All people are differnt so you dont really know what will happen you just have to live each day and hope for the best.

Bad news: People are stupid, dumb, and immature at ALL ages. You will never escape until your death. The true friends you met in junior high will still be true friends in high school. People don't usually change, they just get older. Now the immature factor won't be like sniffing your farts and shit like that, but it'll be just fucking a girl for pussy, not b/c you truly care about her. Or drunk driving. That's the kind of immaturity that you'll run into. I'm sorry, but yes, it will indeed be OK in the end.

I am 14/f and a freshman this year and I've made tons of new friends. Unfortunately, some of my old friends and I are not as close as we used to be, but the friends that really count will stick with you. You learn a lot about your friends in the first year of high school. You figure out which ones care about you and which ones dont. You find out who is more likely to go with the flow to try and fit in, and you figure out which ones stick with the way they are. A lot of people change in high school, but dont give in. Thats the best advice i can give you.

I hope I helped

Yes, there is always hope.

I just started ninth grade this year, and I can defintely tell you that although high school is by far not the most important phase in life, it defines a lot about you, and you are guaranteed to find your niche with people you really connect with if you are true to yourself. Most people do, I know I did. So just avoid those crowds that have "rules" and all look the same, and you'll be fine.

I had the same complex as you last year because I was with people I had been with for 9 years that had already made fixed judgements about me. One of the best things to do is to get out and MEET NEW PEOPLE. Whether it be through MySpace or other friends..whatever. That will indeed keep your mind off those immature kids in your class.

Hope I helped.

I lost a great deal of friends when I entered highschool. They became disloyal but I made new friends, and they are better friends than those that I had in grammar school and middle school. Mostly freshman and sophmores are dumb and immature. I can't tell you how many of them I've wanted to punch in the face since I started highschool. (I'm a sophmore by the way).


It will all be okay in the end. But I'm letting you know you have to expect to lose friends. But you also have to know that you will make new ones.


Highschool isn't really that horrible. Highschool is great if you make it great.



Oh... Highschool is all about DRAMA too. So, if you hate drama.. Be prepared for a massive overload on it.
